Infographic - The Web of the National Rifle Association

The NRA operates 144 distinct websites, by my count. You can learn a lot about the NRA just from their site hostnames. For example, who knew that the NRA sells hearing aids? Yep, www.nrahearingbenfits.com. And apparently they are in the prescription drug business too! www.nrarx.com. Other more well known facts include that the NRA does not like Obama (www.gunbanobama.com), and they aren't fond of Michael Bloomberg either (www.meetbloomberg.com).

Here is a visualization I created of the NRA's sites and their inter-relationships. I created this using Gephi with the Force Atlas 2 module.
